I likes these over Yankz for one, they are so much easier to lace. I can also change the lace pattern with these to help reduce tension on the top of my foot. My only issue is mostly cause by me in cutting the excess to short.

Simple 10 to 15 minute setup where lacing the shoe takes the most time really. Then you just pull, set it and forget it. Just like Ron Popeil, it really is awesome not to worry about laces when you are in an event.

I bought these laces for my 5 year old son's sneakers as he is still learning to tie his shoes and so far (about 3 weeks in) they are holding up really well. These laces work best in running shoe style sneakers and the red laces look "really cool" in his black/red shoes. The pinch-and-slide action is still a little difficult for small hands but he manages better than than with regular laces. I love that you can trim the laces to the right length. A great product for kids this age!

My son is required to wear shoes with Velcro, but we can't find anything in his size so we just purchase regular sneakers and switch out the laces.

Jon Reichlin, an endurance athlete and scientist, and Dana Miller, an international adventurist, tended to get their best ideas while traveling through the Rocky Mountains, journeying across the Grand Canyon, and scaling the Tetons. Accordingly, the two men started Nathan Performance Gear in order to design products that would promote hydration and safety for even the most hardcore athletes.

Today, Nathan is an industry leader in reliable gear that complements intense physical performance with hydration at the forefront of the company's product lines. In addition to individual BPA-free steel and plastic water bottles, Nathan produces several lines of waist bands outfitted with hydration flasks. The "Trail Mix" and "Speed" Series, each equipped with two 10-ounce flasks, offer the one-handed removal and replacement that cyclists and triathletes love. The "Elite 1" line of waistbands features the XTS Cradle and a 22-ounce easy-access water bottle. "Elite 1 Plus" includes an additional five-ounce nutrition flask with a molded holster to ensure gels or electrolyte drinks are always within easy reach.

High-quality race vests are another of Nathan's signature products. Made from high-quality, breathable mesh fabric, they're an ideal accessory for distance runners, climbers, hikers, and endurance athletes. The "NPL #020" race vest features a three-way propulsion harness as well as a hydration bladder that holds up to two liters of water.

Runners and walkers should always exercise safely. As such, Nathan's lines of waist packs incorporate the essentials of the Run Safe Initiative — wearing reflective for high visibility, carrying identification, and bringing along a cell phone for emergencies. To encourage more athletes to carry these and other important essentials, Nathan developed the Shadow Pak, so named because it's "always there but never felt." In addition, the company produces high visibility, or hi vis, reflective belts, wait packs, and vests to protect those who exercise after dark.

Nathan also knows that modern athletes prefer convenient access to technology. The "Sonic Boom" line includes different styles of arm and waist bands designed to house iPods, iTouches, and iPhones.

It's this tireless pursuit of quality, comfort, and accessibility that has made Nathan Performance Gear a world leader of innovative hydration, reflective, and multisport gear and accessories. Nathan's line of race belts and vests, bladder packs, handhelds, runner's packs, bottles, and reflective vests continue to help athletes of all levels redefine what is humanly possible.
